If you are into funky jazz then this album is a must. It stands well along side Roy Ayers and Donald Byrds mid-seventies material. It sits pretty firmly in R&B territory, with most tracks having vocals. The tracks are pretty varied in an R&B kind of way balancing up beat funk work-outs with slower ballad tracks. For me Harris' funky synth work featured on most tracks is what makes this album stand out. While it's a very good album I feel the arrangements are a little too typical of the times to warrent classic status, so I'm only giving it 4 stars. If you are a jazz purist, then stay away. A must have for funksters.

These tunes must have been tagged from the old Liberty Library. This album is beyond commercial....just plain crass! This album, to me, is a dis-service to the memory of the great Gene Harris. Maybe great album for pre-pubescents.
